Update the `CHANGELOG.md` file and create a PR to master with the updates.
Once that PR has been approved by maintainers the change may be cherry-picked
to the release branch (new release branches may be forked from this commit).
20. Update the version file: `https://github.com/docker/distribution/blob/master/version/version.go`
30. Update the `MAINTAINERS` (if necessary), `AUTHORS` and `.mailmap` files.

40. Create a signed tag.
Distribution uses semantic versioning. Tags are of the format `vx.y.z[-rcn]`
You will need PGP installed and a PGP key which has been added to your Github account. The comment for the tag should include the release notes.
Distribution uses semantic versioning. Tags are of the format
`vx.y.z[-rcn]`. You will need PGP installed and a PGP key which has been added
to your Github account. The comment for the tag should include the release
notes, use previous tags as a guide for formatting consistently. Run
`git tag -s vx.y.z[-rcn]` to create tag and `git -v vx.y.z[-rcn]` to verify tag,
check comment and correct commit hash.
50. Push the signed tag
